Book description
Earth, 2065 A. D.:
Destruction and confusion are everywhere. Cities are deserted, the
population is decimated, and the few humans who remain struggle to
survive against an insidious alien presence that is consuming the very
life energy of this wounded world. The presence is spreading across the
planet, infecting everything in its path, killing the Earth one life at
a time.
Only Dr. Aki Ross, a brilliant young woman haunted by dreams
of death, may hold the key to saving the world. But her plan is not
without its risks, and a rogue general commanding the most
technologically sophisticated army in history will storm heaven itself
to stop her if he has to. He has plans of his own to stop the alien
life force in one decisive stroke...plans that will stab at the very
heart of Nature itself unless Aki's quest succeeds.
